New script: Projection toolbar update
-
Thank you for this great toolbar (although I do miss the line2cyl though, it was very convenient to have a button for that feature. I saw the other post about working out the intersection issue).
Being able to use the VCB and inference to control the Extrude selected lines along a vector tool is very elegant
And the documentation is very good.
I cannot get Project selected line perpendicular to plane to work. Only one edge is projected. I tried both selecting connected segments and welded segments.

Hi,
What I see on the pic is that a face is selected. So what do you expect from a command which projects a line in this case ? You must select an edge to project an edge -
I did select all lines and the face. Only one line would project.
The line on the left had three segments and the line on the right was welded. I also tried a circle entity, only selecting the outer edge lines to run the tool. In every case, only one segment would project.
I am running a new installation of SU6, XP Pro.

Hi,
Please post the SKP so I can help (I hope).
regards, -
When I click on the link in the first post, I am receiving a note that that topic does not exist.
Is there somewhere else I can download this update?
Thanks Didier, your projection tools are awesome!

Probably a "board migration issue"
?
The link has been fixed. You can also download all latest versions of free scripts at my site

Thank you, sir.
Works great now.

didier great work! works perfectly and the user friendliness is sketchup-quality, please think about revising your lines2cyl script - it proves valuable when creating nets or simple structural grids.. thanks

Hi:
Is there any required file to work with Projection?I can't make it work !!!
I'm receiving from the ruby console:Error: #<NameError: uninitialized constant AddCpointTool>
C:/Archivos de programa/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/projection_extension.rb:32
C:/Archivos de programa/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/projection_extension.rb:32:in `call'when trying to place a construction point...
Thank you
Pablo

@ Pallamand,
This looks like an installation issue. Check for required subfolders an required files as well (see user guide). If everything is OK, tell me. -
Hi Didier:
Here are snaps of my directories...
Thank you once again for your helpPablo

Everything seems correct
Error; #<NameError; uninitialized constant AddCpointTool>
means that the AddCpointTool class is unknown to SketchUp, and that the projection.rb file has not been loaded.
Let's try something. Open the Ruby console, select a line in your model and click with the cursor in the white field at the bottom of the ruby console and type:
Sketchup.active_model.select_tool ExtrudeLineTool.new (and hit Enter)
This launches the "extrudeline" tool. If you get an error message, be sure the script is not loaded. If it works, this is another problem (that I can't figure out for now...)
Hope this helps,
-
Hi:
It seems it's working...BTW, did I tell you that I can't use the "construction point" neither?
Thank you again for your help !!!!

Dear Didier,
Un très grand bravo et un merci de la même taille pour ce "Projection Pack". I keep it as a permanent basic tools pack of SU.( And i haven't yet tapped quarter of its possibilities.)
One question:
Construction point is a very handy tool i am using daily. How can we do to erase them after the drawing is finished???slb

Dear Didier
Does it possible for the N°13 (extrude selected lines along a vector) to have automatic new lines result "selected" for a new extrusion and so one...
So user has just to draw a line of vectors click after clickor such plug yet exist?
-
@Tig
Yes that is very nearestFrom an old french TV Serial "5 dernières minutes" (Last five minutes) (like Colombo)
And the gimmik was at the end "Mais bon sang, c'est bien sûr" when the Police superintendants Bourrel and his loyal Cabrol has found the solution of the crime! (It's Cabrol who said the gimmickremake in comics by Gotlib : Bougret & Chabrol
And for my little suggestion above no idea?
